It had been on my heart for us to capture memories of our pregnancy in an outdoor shoot in the Canadian winter. But with exorbitant photography prices, I wasn’t sure if it would happen. With a spate of unpredictable snow, freezing rain, fog and cloudiness this winter, suitable weather also seemed improbable.
As I continued to pray for the opportunity, I received a phonecall one evening, which floored me completely.
How filled were we with thanksgiving to God for the unbelievable opportunity for this winter shoot, done without charge by a photographer who provided everything needed for it. Not only did she offer to travel quite a fair distance down to meet us, the location she had in mind was, in breathtaking ‘coincidence’, uniquely special to us as Cliff had brought me there on walks every time we had to visit Canada.
That morning, turned out to be the one single morning there were blue skies and magical sunlight, in a month filled with grudging grey clouds and awful freezing rain.
It has been raining, foggy and overcast ever since,
without the slightest hint of a blue sky or snow.
Thank You God, for this wonderful gift of memories.
And thank you Cliff,
for making pregnancy such a memorable and wonderful experience I will dearly miss.
More to come.
